SNA Displays revitalises Las Vegas Raiders' draft room.

SNA Displays revitalises Las Vegas Raiders' draft room. A new LED display, made with five 0.9mm Brilliant Interior video walls, is 2m tall and wraps more than 25m around what is said to be the highest-spec draft room in the National Football League. SNA Displays has teamed up with live-events technology integrator Image Engineering to turn the Las Vegas Raiders' draft room into an immersive video experience. Located at the American football team's Intermountain Health Performance Center, the upgraded facility is now one of the National Football League's highest-spec command centres for evaluating prospects, coordinating draft picks and collaborating about on-field operations. The display is 2m tall and wraps more than 25m around the room, with a native resolution of 2,160 by 26,880 pixels. It comprises five of SNA Displays' Brilliant Interior video walls with a 0.9mm pixel pitch. The dvLED displays provide a continuous canvas that on which Raiders executives, coaches and scouts can watch video footage, real-time analytics and other experiential content. Barbara Barry, director of sports and live events at SNA Displays, says: "When seconds are crucial to making season-defining choices, decision-makers need technology they can count on. "The Raiders' draft room is a visual powerhouse that is not only the best in the league, but gives the team an edge against their competition."

The Tech Behind: How Baltimore’S Washington Monument Gets Lit Every Winter Holiday

Outsiders may not know, but Baltimore actually has its own Washington Monument — and it’s older than its counterpart in DC. Its cornerstone was laid in 1815, nearly two centuries before the inception of an annual tradition: the holiday illumination of this relic in Baltimore’s Mt. Vernon neighborhood, which this year takes place on Thursday, Dec. 7. The monument, which passersby can ascend year-round for a fee, is stewarded by the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy (MVPC). Since 2008, MVPC has programmed and maintained both the monument and the park squares surrounding it throughout the year
